Dear friends of Soup and Socks / Habibi.Works,

We are insanely grateful for your support, which enables us to keep this unique project running! A lot of things have happened in the past months:
Habibi.Works celebrated its 2nd anniversary
The 4th generation of people needed to move into camp Katsikas
We've ran a very successful Christmas campaign with your help
With the new inhabitants of camp Katsikas Habibi.Works is busier than ever before. Your financial contributions allowed us to cover the basics like rent, electricity, water, car insurances, fuel and food costs for the daily shared meals.

But it also helped us to keep the workshop areas running with up-to-date equipment. So after years of a free rental, we finally acquired the cameo laser cutter! We built a new bike repair shop outside, stocked it with new spare parts, improved the indoor gym and bought a whole load of building materials for the makers' projects.
